DOPE-NESS in rings. And good for a fist fight on the dance floor. Thank You Nicholas Ghesquire for bringing brilliance to your last collection for the house Balenciaga. Now let’s these babies go into production.

With Prada and Lanvin bringing on the geisha vibes heavily for Spring Summer 2013, I found the most relevant geisha reference in modern pop culture…. Memoirs of a Geisha. A gorgeous movie, and an even better book for those of us who still read, this film shows geisha’s in all of their glory and hideousness,...

Obsessed with hologram, always obsessed with pumps. This little gem is a shoe wardrobe must have for SS13.

My newest hero and a character who looks like she stepped right off the Fall Winter 2012 Comme Des Garcons runway, may I please introduce you to the best sass mouth teenage gurl ever, Lumpy Space Princess? Thank god my DILF boyfriend introduced me to this awesome ultimate man-voiced distraught youth yesterday over breakfast. I...

Since we are on a space theme today, and I spend way too much time watching random shit on youtube, I thought it would be a delight to share this little nugget of joy I found yesterday. Raquel Welch shaking her jelly in space costumes in the 60′s. Barbarella who? This kinda crap is priceless....

Something about this just seems relevant. Maybe it’s all the seventies inspiration and Cardin/Courreges space vibes. And of course, David Bowie’s a legend.

Andre Courreges’s designs from the 60′s and 70′s ran rampant through the collections as inspiration for Spring Summer 2013 (Prada, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, etc.). Here are some youtube gems I found for your viewing pleasure!

My favorite fashion fanatic, Kanye West, brings us our Tuesday morning inspiration via his video “Mercy”. Not only is this a simple and well-filmed little music video nugget, it is also a totally killer song. The parking garage looks like something from the Marc Jacobs Spring Summer 2013 collection, and kinda makes me wanna do...

Since discovering the work of Andy Warhol in my early teens, I have long been obsessed with Andy, Edie and pretty much any other person who frequented the factory. Edie is your ideal rock and roll fairy tale. One of those vulnerable and completely gorgeous heroines that you really want to make it but shoot...

Mrs. Prada always wraps up the show season with her Miu Miu collection in Paris. With all of the Sixties and Geisha and all of the other heavy referencing, Miuccia took us back to what she does best, lady with a mega twist. This time the Miu Miu Lady/GURL is from the Fifties & Sixties...

Closing the season, as he opened it, Marc Jacobs brings us once again to the world of Sixties minimalism/maximalism this time through checkerboard goggles for Louis Vuitton SS13. The deranged twins he sent down the escalators to the runway reminded me of Diane Arbus and the twins from Kubrick’s The Shining. Perfectly creepy. The perfectly...
